I am married to Jacqueline Barnes and we have three daughters, JaToryia, Brookline, and Jaceline. Outside of teaching and coaching, I am the Associate Pastor at Roberts Missionary Baptist Church. I am a 2001 graduate of San Augustine High School. After High School I attended Stephen F. Austin and East Texas Baptist University. I played one year of basketball at Stephen F. Austin and three years of football at East Texas Baptist University. I graduated from Stephen F. Austin in 2006 with a Bachelors Degree with a major in Kinesiology and a minor in English. Shortly afterwards, I was employed by San Augustine ISD to teach and to be an assistant coach. In 2008 I became the Head Basketball Coach, and have won over 250 games in 13 years. Throughout my tenure as a head basketball coach, we have a state tournament appearance, two regional tournament appearances, four region quarterfinal appearances and four district championships. I have also been named district coach of the year four times, and was named the Don Coleman Outstanding 2A Coach of the Year by the Texas Association of Basketball Coaches in 2017. During my time as an assistant football coach, we were in the playoffs ten years, won five district championships, regional finalist once, and state semifinalist three times. The previous six years, I served as the offensive coordinator where our team averaged over 40 points per game. In 2019 we were in the top five in the state in ppg from 1A-6A averaging over 55 ppg. I have served as head track coach since 2015. During that time, we have won two district championships, two Area Championships, and was crowned State Champions in the 4x200 relay in 2018. We have had several other relays and individuals qualify for the state track meet.

is a ball of energy! I have a true passion for kids, mentoring and leading. I’m originally from Shelbyville, but
very excited to be a WOLF NOW. I have been a teacher/coach for 9 years. My life would have been completely
different if it wasn’t for my coach/father, Kevin Gracie, so I make sure to be the same type of coach he was for
all of us. Iron sharpens iron, therefore we all have to help each other. I graduated from Hardin-Simmons
University, where I also played collegiate basketball. I received my masters from SFA. My son and I are
extremely excited to join the WOLF PACK!
